Nasal allergies mess
up the day for 40 million Americans. Walking around sneezing and sniffling can
put a damper on your quality of life. The Balancing Act on Lifetime
Television, as part of its Gift of Health Special, welcomes Dr. William Berger,
a leading expert on allergies and asthma and a Consultant to Sepracor Inc., to
share some simple tips on allergy-proofing your home and to talk about a highly
effective medication to relieve bothersome nasal allergy symptoms. The
segment airs September 10th.
“Allergy-proofing
your home can reduce exposure to allergens, like pollen, pet dander and dust
mites,” says Berger. “Use a vacuum cleaner with a filter that traps tiny
particles and be sure to wash bedding at least once a week. Allergy-protective
pillows and mattress covers are also great for getting rid of those pesky bugs.
Don’t forget that hidden dust under the bed.”
Need something more
to resolve the problem? Try Omnaris® (ciclesonide) Nasal Spray. This effective
prescription medication treats seasonal and year-round nasal allergy symptoms
caused by allergic inflammation. One dose can give you a full 24 hours of
relief. Take it daily, not just when symptoms flare up.
Clinical studies tell
the tale, he says. “Omnaris Nasal Spray was found to be effective over time
with a low incidence of side effects. There’s no unpleasant taste or smell, and
it doesn’t contain alcohol or preservatives that can irritate nasal passages.”
